Mompoint, 32, has worked in the misdemeanor county court for the State Attorney's Office since 2013.

She was arrested Monday evening in the 2600 block of North Dixie Highway by Wilton Manors Police. In addition to a possession-of-methamphetamine charge, Mompoint was charged with failing to register a motor vehicle.

According to the Sun-Sentinel, Broward State Attorney's Office spokesman Ron Ishoy said that a request to assign a prosecutor from a county outside Broward has been sent to the governor's office. This, Ishoy says, is to avoid any appearance of conflict of interest.

Mompoint was suspended from the Broward State Attorney's Office without pay pending the investigation.
